The Story

Beaune vineyards are the most extensive in the Côte de Beaune region, between Savigny to the North, and Pommard to the South. There are no Grand Cru vineyards in this village, but 36 Premiers Crus. The red wines from the central and southern parts are powerful, tannic, and deeply coloured while those from the northern area are generally less intensely coloured with softer fruit flavours. The Beaune 1er Cru «Clos des Ursules» is a walled in portion of the Beaune 1er Cru «Vignes Franches». It was purchased in 1826 by Louis Henry Denis Jadot and has remained a solely owned property of the Jadot family.

Fermentation is carried out as naturally as possible made as natural as possible in open tanks (without stems). It usually undergoes fairly long fermentation (25 to 33 days) in order to extract colour, tannins and aromas. The different premiers crus are vinified separately and then aged in wooden barrels for 15-18 months. The blending is performed at the end of the vinification.

Beaune Premier Cru "Clos des Ursules" is a full, firm and rich wine. It is fine, with a slightly earthy bouquet and long, lush finish,  converge in a wine which perfectly balances elegance and power.

It works harmoniously with delicate meat dishes as well as most cheeses.

Vintage 1900

The 1900 vintage in Burgundy stands as a historic chapter in the region's winemaking legacy. 

Weather Conditions: The weather conditions in Burgundy during the 1900 growing season were significant factors in shaping the character of the vintage. The year began with a mild winter, followed by a warm and dry spring, which allowed for an early budbreak and flowering. However, summer brought challenges, as it was cooler and wetter than usual, leading to some issues with ripening.

Burgundy 1900 Reds: The red wines of Burgundy from the 1900 vintage are legendary for their exceptional aging potential and complexity. These wines have achieved iconic status among collectors and connoisseurs.

Appearance: The 1900 Burgundy reds typically exhibit a deep garnet color with brick-red or amber hints, reflecting their considerable age.

Nose: On the nose, the 1900 Burgundy reds offer a beguiling bouquet of dried red fruits, forest floor, hints of earthiness, and subtle spice notes. The aromatic profile is a testament to the remarkable complexity of these wines.

Palate: In the mouth, the 1900 Burgundy reds are marked by their depth, concentration, and silky texture. The tannins, having aged gracefully, contribute to the wines' velvety mouthfeel. Surprisingly, the wines maintain a refreshing acidity, which is essential for their longevity. Flavors of dried cherries, blackcurrants, and nuances of truffle and spice intertwine harmoniously, creating a profound and enduring finish.

Overall Impressions: The Burgundy 1900 vintage is celebrated as one of the region's greatest years, producing wines of extraordinary quality and longevity. These wines have aged gracefully and continue to captivate wine enthusiasts with their complexity and character. They are a testament to the enduring excellence of Burgundy's Pinot Noir.

For collectors and connoisseurs, the 1900 Burgundy wines represent a pinnacle of excellence in the world of fine wine. While finding bottles from this vintage today can be a challenge due to their rarity and age, those fortunate enough to experience them are rewarded with a profound connection to Burgundy's rich winemaking heritage and the timeless quality that Burgundy wines can achieve.

Written Notes

Estate bottled. Fill level bottom neck. Fairly intensive, slightly cloudy cherry colour. Very delicious flowery-cherry nose with hints of violet and still intensive fruit. Decayed meaty aromas create dimension in the fragrance. Vividly acid, fairly full taste is complemented by an intensive, silky mouthfeel. Abundant taste complemented by fairly high alcohol and slight volatility. Sweet nuances of boiled root vegetables in aftertaste. An incredibly vivid Burgundy with a lot of personality and classic, refined Pinot Noir properties. Will not mature any more, but will remain good for years.
